The last that ever she saw him,
Carried away by a moonlight shadow
He passed on worried and warning,
Carried away by a moonlight shadow
Lost in a riddle that Saturday night,
Far away on the other side
He was caught in the middle of a desperate fight
And she couldn't find how to push through
The trees that whisper in the evening,
Carried away by a moonlight shadow
Sing a song of sorrow and grieving,
Carried away by a moonlight shadow
All she saw was a silhouette of a gun,
Far away on the other side
He was shot six times by a man on the run
And she couldn't find how to push through
[ Chorus ]
I stay, I pray
See you in heaven far away
I stay, I pray
See you in heaven one day
Four am in the morning,
Carried away by a moonlight shadow
I watched your vision forming,
Carried away by a moonlight shadow
Star was light in a silvery night,
Far away on the other side
Will you come to terms with me this night,
But she couldn't find how to push through
[ Chorus ]
I stay, I pray
See you in heaven far away
I stay, I pray
See you in heaven one day
Far away on the other side
Caught in the middle of a hundred and five
The night was heavy and the air was alive,
But she couldn't find how to push through
Carried away by a moonlight shadow
Carried away by a moonlight shadow
Far away on the other side
